This constitutional amendment would limit South Dakota state legislators to serving a maximum of eight years in the Senate or House. If approved by voters in the next general election, the amendment would add this term limit requirement to the state constitution, preventing legislators from serving more than two consecutive four-year terms (or equivalent combinations in either chamber).
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
